Romantic novels seem to exert a special fascination on film-makers and that's shown in the fact that they keep been adapted to be shown on the silver screen.
The Brontë sisters (Charlotte, Emily and Anne) were a threesome who really made an impact on English literature with their novels Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre and Agnes Rey.
The 3 novels have already been turned into movies, but in a few days a new version of Jane Eyre will be released, written by Moira Buffini and directed by Cary Fukunaga, with quite an amazing setting. Even if you haven't read the novel (which I recommend) you should watch the earlier movie (1996) by Franco Zeffirelli with William Hurt as Mr Rochester, and also the 1944 one starring Orson Welles.
Here's the trailer of the new one:
